Mocking someone who is bleeding out in front of you is literal psychopath behavior.
Breaking into a house and threatening a child is pyschopath behavior.
The kid is 11, he is going to need a long time to process what has happen. There was adrenaline pumping, genuine risk to his life and a culture of self defense. Did you expect him to suddenly grab a medkit and approach someone larger and older than him who may not be fully incapacitated and already threatened him?
I don't expect a kid to do much of anything after shooting a person, intruder or not, not mock them for being in pain of a literal bullet wound.
Granted if the parents taught him how to use a firearm they should also have taught him how to use a medical pack because accidents can and do happen with firearms and he should be able to patch up himself or someone else if an accident does happen.
The hell? Do not approach an intruder, get safe and get the police there, in that order.
No civilian should be approaching a wounder intruder. They could have a concealed weapon like a knife or a gun.
When the intruder broke in, they probably had a tough guy attitude and that attitude changed real quick when they felt pain.
I never said the kid should have actually gone over and given any kind of first aid, but he should still be taught basic first aid if his parents are teaching him how to use a gun.
It's still psychopathic to mock someone who you just shot.
I was taught first aid in cub scouts by that age. I wouldn't have done anything to help a threatening adult
I don't think I would have shouted insults at him, but I wasn't raised on games where you shoot people
Lol if someone breaks into my home the last thing I'm going to reach out for is a medkit.
Context is everything and you don’t have any. I’d be mocking the meth head who tried to kill 11 year old me as well. This kid is a hero.
Wait the kid shot the man as he was trying to hop a fence and run away? Again, this is the behavior of actual psychopaths.
Yes a child, not a grow adult with the ability to make perfect judgement calls, shot in the direction of his attacker. Then continued to shoot as the attacker was fleeing the scene.
Don’t be naive, a grown adult who was in a panic in that circumstance would not be viewed as a psychopath, let alone a child.
Gotta make sure they keep running.
Context doesn't help - laughing at someone you shot is extremely disturbing behavior. 10x so for a child.
The correct response is fear/adrenaline/panic or something to that effect.
There is no "correct" response to traumatic events
Can you tell me more about how context isn’t important in this circumstance?
The child told news reporter this after the event occurred. We don’t even know whether or not he laughed like, “heh wow that was scary”. Or maniacally like the Joker.
Or if it was a lie to make himself look macho to his peers at school.
The correct response when shooting a criminal who broke into your home and threatened you is my, indeed, not to laugh, but to reload and keep shooting.
your life has never been threatened by another person and it shows. the kid probably was feeling a rush of both fear and then self confidence because he successfully defended himself, which manifested in clowning on the fucker who was trying to kill him. it's very easy for you to judge and diagnose him from behind your screen but if you were in the situation, how do you know you'd act differently? or more likely you'd probably cower in the corner and get yourself killed because you're too concerned with the intruder's feelings to do anything about it
Speak however you like to someone who just tried to kill you.
Have empathy for all
I can emphatically understand how they feel, doesn't mean I'm their bud.
Sounds very sheltered of you.
Who's downvoting this?
It reads like a sign on the wall written in cursive at my aunt's house.
People who think psychopathic behavior is desirable apparently.
I've found those sort of people to be pretty psychotic themselves.
He survived. He was shot in the leg and got treatment in the hospital. The child did not stand over him while he was bleeding out. That part was a joke made by someone responding to the article.
RIP to the teachers who had to put up with you
That is just a super mean thing to say. There's another person at the other end of the computers.
Maybe if he hadn't said something idiotic and then belligerently doubled down, people wouldn't figure that he must have been an insufferable child who gave his teachers headaches by being obstinate over nothing every day. With an attitude like his I reckon he probably fought tooth and nail against accepting PEMDAS. He should have been more considerate to people at the other end of the computers by not pinching off stupid ideas, but when he voluntarily chose to, he chose to accept criticism of it. I'm not being mean, I'm giving him what he asked for. If I wanted to be mean, I'd say that if I ever decide to kill myself I'll climb up to his number of chromosomes and jump down to his IQ, but I don't, so I won't say that.
